HyperRadio 1.26:
Reason for tweak: Did not like podMusic quiting with condition Red Alert (i.e. I like radio blasting during battle).

This going to seem like a kind of odd request, but does anyone here know how I'd go about making a modification to how stations spawn in Stations for Extra Planets OXP? I'm trying to stick to a more-or-less vanilla artstyle, and need something to make those systems more interesting besides RRS stations and the occasional HoOpy Casino. Some of the stations work nicely for this, and I've already got the OXP working without system restrictions, only spawning globe stations and habitats. However, I'm overall pretty bad at js, and I have no idea where I'd add an appropriate TL and or system government-related if-statement in the populator script to actually make it affect where things spawn, instead of just breaking things.

I've tried looking at other station oxp populator scripts but it seems like Stations for Extra Planets works in a much more complex way, which I guess isn't a surprise. Any ideas?

	if (system.techLevel < 11)
		var stations = this.$corStations.concat();
	else 
		var stations = this.$corStations.concat(this.$dodStations, this.$icoStations);

	if (system.techLevel < 5)
		var stations = this.$corStations.concat();
	else if (system.techLevel < 10)
		var stations = this.$dodStations.concat();
	else 
		var stations = this.$icoStations.concat();

Thank you so much Spara! That really helps.

Random Hits 1.4.18:
Reason for tweak: Did not want Seedy Space Bars spawned at every anarchy system.

Code: Select all

this.setupShips = function ()
{
    if (system.isInterstellarSpace) return;
    
    if (system.government === 0 && system.economy === 2) // only spawn at poor industrial systems
    {
        var barNumber = Math.floor(system.ID/16); // generates 0...15 (bar number 1...16) // max of 16 unique bar names
        var barPosition = new Vector3D(this.spacebarPositions[this.modulo(barNumber,5)]); // generates 0...4
        barPosition = system.mainPlanet.position.subtract(barPosition); // translate pwu into wpu
        barNumber++;
        this.setupSpacebar(barNumber, barPosition);

        // Random Bar Attacks
        if (Math.random() < 0.15)
        {
            system.addGroup("random_hits_big_boss", this.anyInt(3,6), barPosition, 10000);
            system.addGroup("random_hits_big_boss_fighter", 6, barPosition, 10000);
        }
    }
}

if (system.government === 0 || (system.government === 2 && galaxyNumber != 3)) // makes them appear in Multi-Gov systems as well! But not in Galaxy Chart 4!

spara, that needs to be part of the core game!

I'd prefer such a message to only appear once at the bottom rather than after each. How could this code be modified to wait until no cargo has been scooped for second then display the message once?

Come to think of it, a MFD specifically designed for miners might be a good idea anyway. (Though I realise this particular feature would be handy for all players, not just miners)

Or is there another way of getting only one equipment by the key?

At the moment above function shows if user bought Equipment with _REMOVAL. How do I detect if equip string contains “_REMOVAL” to set a proper wording when equipment was sold.

if (string.match(/_REMOVAL/)) { ... } else { ... }
